[lace-chat] :-) True bravery
True bravery is arriving home late after a boy's night out, being assaulted by your wife with a broom, and still having the guts to ask: Are you still cleaning or are you flying somewhere?

[lace-chat] :-)) Golf story
This joke did the rounds 30+ years ago but the garment then was a step-in but I suppose not many people know what that is any longer!! Jeanette Fischer, Western Cape, South Africa Two golfers are in the changing room after their 18-hole round. One of them wears a bra. When did you start wearing a bra! he is asked. Ever since my wife found one in the cubby hole of my car!

Re: [lace-chat] Thank You Debbie Mouzon!!!
Dear Weronika, A couple of times a year, all on the Arachne lists get the opportunity, if they so wish, to sign up and take part in a round of gift exchanges. The idea is that you send a small gift each month to another member of the list, but they don't know who you are till the final one, when your identity is revealed. In turn, you're matched up with someone else, and that person also sends you a gift each month anonomously. I think each Secret Pal round of exchanges lasts six months, but if I'm wrong, someone will correct me! Watch the list, and the Secret Pal Co-ordinator will announce when the next round starts, and the rules for the running of it.

[lace-chat] Secret Pals -- Coordinator Needed
Greetings, As Ruth mentioned, the Secret Pals are a group of Arachnians who participate in an exchange of mystery gifts. Each person sends one package a month for six months, anonymously for the first five months. The sixth month is the revealing month. The current round of Secret Pals ended this month. The next round would go from May to October. This was my fourth time of coordinating the exchange. I think I need a break. I'm looking for someone to take the job for a round. Here are some comments on the job that might help you decide if you can or cannot do it. The coordinator first collects the applications from the persons interested. Then assigns each person to a sending person. Each person is sent a copy of the application information of the person she will send to. This original set up takes me about 3-4 evenings to complete. Then, for the next six months, the coordinator keeps track of the thank you messages that are to be sent after each gift is received. Questions and concerns of the secret pals are sent to the coordinator for forwarding to the proper person, then the answers sent back to the sender. Some months, this activitiy is very small, and some months there are quite a few emails received and sent. The coordinator must be willing to receive this extra volume of emails and respond to them. The job does not end with assigning the secret pals. The coordinator must also be willing to remove someone from the list if packages are not being sent, or if someone has a life style change that requires them to drop out of the round. This happens usually once or twice a round. However, it can be a bit of fun. You know whom each person has as a pal. You can get better acquainted with some of them during the round. Anyone who is interested can write to me. We'll discuss it. Prospective secret pals should wait for an application message before applying. Happy lacing, Alice in Oregon --- where it's still raining.
